Was the car ever tinted? check each line, maybe a line got damaged somewhere on the window.

Your window has been tinted....factory glass is clear...you might have to remove the tint to see if the lines on the glass are damaged.

If the bottom part works and the rest doesn't you have a cut somewhere in the heater circuit on the window. It is strange that it would happen some random time after tint was already applied if anything the tint would protect it at that point.
